Sai Abhyankkar, who is currently busy dabbling with various film commitments, has now unveiled the promo for his next independent single, titled 'Pavazha Malli'. The full song will be unveiled on March 5 at 7pm.

Shruti Haasan has lent her voice for the upcoming song, which is likely to feature Dragon-fame Kayadu Lohar. The promo only features a small glimpse of the actor in the song, and the frame resembles Kayadu.

'Pavazha Malli', billed as a wedding song, comes after Sai Abhyankkar's four other singles. He first unveiled 'Katchi Sera', which featured Samyuktha Viswanathan in the video. His sophomore composition, 'Aasa Kooda' starring Preity Mukhundhan, was a hit across music streaming platforms and Instagram. He then collaborated with Meenakshi Chaudhary for 'Sithira Puthiri'. Then came 'Vizhi Veekura', which featured him and Saanve Megghana in a sunflower garden.

Sai Abhyankkar made his film debut with Balti in Malayalam and Dude in Tamil last year. 'Oorum Blood' from Dude became a blockbuster hit and has more than 100 million views on YouTube.

In the pipeline, the young composer has a number of big-budget films. Benz, starring Raghava Lawrence and Nivin Pauly; Suriya's Karuppu, helmed by RJ Balaji; Allu Arjun and Atlee's AA22xA6; and Karthi's Marshal are some of his upcoming projects. While he recently also joined Dhanush's D55 with Rajkumar Periasamy, some reports also claim that he is set to compose for Rajinikanth's Thalaivar 173, helmed by Cibi Chakravarthy.
